[QUOTE="Ryder, post: 797193, member: 663"] My father was in the Merchant Marine being chased by U-Boats. I have heard him talk of how long and tense the hours were in the engine room and couldn't leave his post when they knew they were being stalked by sumarines and were constantly executing evasive maneuvers. I also have a bracelet which the crew made from a Japenese airplane wing they fished out of the water and gave to him for my mother when he was in the Philippines in March of '45. He has been gone a long time now and I am now older than he was when he died. But I am still awed by my memories of him an those like him. [/QUOTE]
